Marty, as I'm in the UK, I don't have experience of Advance Autowire. That 
said, fitting a relay to 
your heallight circuit is an excellent idea. Many headlight column switches are 
getting very ancient 
and with the availability of brighter bulbs or those with higher wattage, the 
load on the dim/dip 
switch becomes greater. Both my Triumph saloons with four headlights as 
standard have had relays 
fitted since I managed to burn out three switch sets. With the relays in place 
- and possibly 
heavier cable to take extra power if you go down the high wattage route - 
you'll be a lot safer at 
night.
